Hidden Valley Holiday Park, Wicklow, Ireland

Hidden Valley is a serene haven of relaxation. Set in a beautiful valley with sites overlooking the tranquil waters of the Avonmore River and a glassy, private lake, The park offers guests the opportunity to experience a holiday amid an abundance of wildlife including kingfishers, cranes, wild geese, ducks, otters and pheasant.

Hidden Valley Holiday Park attracts couples and families seeking a peaceful, family-fun holiday in picturesque surroundings. The park offers both hard-standing and grass sites, each with electric, water and grey waste. The park also has a fantastic choice of boutique glamping lodges for those looking for an outdoor getaway with all the views of camping but with all the comforts of home.

The Park was formed in 2005 and is owned and operated by The Williams family. In the first three years of operation, the owners upgraded the holiday park from a 2-star park into a 4-star Failte Ireland approved park offering modern facilities and great value for couples and families alike. As a family owned and operated business we take great pride in assuring our guests a fantastic and memorable holiday.

The park is located in Rathdrum (“Ringfort of the Ridge”), which was originally the main town of Co. Wicklow, and is still well serviced by both train and bus. The town is situated high on the western side of the beautiful Avonmore Valley and offers the tourist scenic views of the Avonmore River, which flows through the Vale of Clara. The Rathdrum railway station opened on July 18th, 1863.

Rathdrum is well known for the Avondale House and Forest Park, which was home to Charles Stewart Parnell – one of the greatest political leaders of modern Irish History. The grounds offer excellent forest/river walks and picnics.

Rathdrum was also well known for the Rathdrum International Cartoon Festival. The Cartoon Inn displays the work of Bill Eirner, Hunt Emereson, Ulrich Schroeder, Bob Foster, which are among some of the famous artists whose work can be seen at close quarter. The Cartoon Inn is famed far and wide for the rich and humour cartoons which adorn its welcoming walls.

Rathdrum Fun!

Mc Guinness, Chris - 16/04/2026

Our 2+4 family have been visiting Hidden Valley Rathdrum for many years now! We love it. It’s always what we expect and then with a few changes year after year. We visit several times a year for different lengths of stays and sometimes I go solo with the younger ones and always feel safe and comfortable. Rathdrum village up the hill is great for the few bits and bobs you need. Was great for the Easter weekend and thankfully got some nice weather.

Great time brill facilities children and adults had a ball .

Fantastic park. Loads for kids to do. Lovely views. Very clean

Lovely campsite, well kept and great facilities. Location good & Glendalough not far away. However it would be nice if one or two of the activities were complimentary..they could do with being at least half the price they are. You will spend a lot on kids activities so be prepared!

Outdoor fun

Stayed in the loft house cabin with 3 adults and 4 teenagers, had plenty of space, the teens enjoyed the tubing, boating, rafting, laser and golf. Food in the restaurant was reasonably priced and tasted great. You can make it as cheap or expensive as you want.

First family stay but definitely not our last.

Nice location, pricey baseline when all the amenities are additional cost.

Expensive

Reid, Edward - 06/11/2025

The pitch prices here are expensive. The facilities are good but charging more for showers is kinda ott when you are already charging probably the highest pitch fee in the country. The activities are also expensive for the time you get out of them. I just couldn’t get my head around €36 for a family of four for half hour of mini golf. Granted the investment in the facilities is undoubtedly huge and the public liability is probably insane but I still can’t get my head around it. Not saying we wouldn’t return, this was our third trip there but everything is a little insanely priced. If prices came down we would definitely be back but unsure for now.

Our stay on Halloween weekend everyone make such an effort with decorations etc the kids had a blast
